OFF before adding or checking oil.

The following section describes the necessary steps to prepare the generator for use. If you are unsure about how to
perform any of the steps please call 1-(800) 232-1195 M-F 8-5 CST for customer service. Failure to perform these
steps properly can damage the generator or shorten its life.
STEP 1 - ADD / CHECK OIL
The generator is shipped without oil. User must add the proper amount of oil before operating the generator for the
first time. The oil capacity of the engine crankcase is 17.1 fl. oz. (0.5 L).
• 30W Engine Oil
Temperatures above 40°F
• 10W-30 Engine Oil
Temperatures between 0°F - 40°F
• Synthetic 5W-30 Engine Oil
All temperature ranges
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
Select good quality detergent oil bearing the American Petroleum Institute (API) service classifications
SJ, SL, or SM (synthetic oils may be used). Select the SAE viscosity grade of oil that matches the
expected operating temperature.
CAUTION!
Keep the generator level. Tilting the generator to
assist in filling will cause oil to flow into the wrong areas of the
engine and cause damage.
1. Open the oil access cover (Fig. 2 - 1), remove and wipe the oil
dipstick with a clean rag. Insert the dipstick into the oil fill opening
without screwing it in.
2. Remove the dipstick to check the oil mark on the dipstick (Fig.
3). Add oil if the oil mark covers less than one half of the dipstick.
3. Slowly add oil and repeat step 2 until the oil mark reaches to the
top of dipstick (or when you can see the oil coming halfway up the
oil fill threads). Do not overfill the crankcase.
4. Wipe clean any oil leaks and firmly tighten the dipstick.
CAUTION! For subsequent operation, the oil
level should be checked before each use, or
after every 8 hours of operation. The gen-
erator is equipped with a low-oil sensor and
will not start without a sufficient amount of
oil. Follow the instructions on the next page
to check the oil level.
